Default Audi RS8

Pardon my seemingly poor reading comprehension but I do not get this.

So it's a new car based on the old one?

It looks like a prototype from 2013 that led them to abandon a true D4 RS8 and instead make the D4 S8 Plus in 2016 which most reviews agree is the closest anyone will ever get to an RS8.
Interesting it made it to the prototype phase I never knew that. Thanks for the link.
